I’m pretty sure you can do some dental hygienist, plumbing, electrician, and auto repair courses in less than a year, and most of those pay pretty well.

I am looking for an institution that offer summer training on job placement and in-training placement skills?

Question by Jane Chero Cheramgoi: I am looking for an institution that offer summer training on job placement and in-training placement skills?
Which are some of the best training institution that train in job and internship placement and career development advisory skills?

Best answer:

Answer by Cindy Brady
It depends on what occupation you want training in. Do some research first by visiting with those who you would like to do their type of work. I became an certified optician this way; many years ago.
I would start by looking at your local area vocational tech school. This could even be a short course of about 6 weeks at your local junior college. If you’re wanting a paid internship; then you may have to interview with the program’s director.
Job corps (US government) is a good place to start if you’re under 24 and want to learn, earn, and live near the place you will be schooled at.

does anyone know of a job training program similar to job corps only for 25 and older?

Question by nostupidquestions: does anyone know of a job training program similar to job corps only for 25 and older?
I dont have any money I’m unemployed and got my GED and never went back to school, all thanks to wonderful help of parents growing up? I have no skills…does anyone know if theres any job training program for adults without money?

Answer by Brianna
Check your state’s website, they may have a program for your situation. There’s always AmeriCorps, which is kind of like Peace Corps, but in America. Also, try looking at a local community college…there may be a program available there, too. Search for jobs and internships online at sites like HotJobs and Craigslist in the meantime.
That being said, stop blaming your parents. You didn’t have a choice in what you were brought into, but you can always choose how to react to it. You’re an adult; act like it.

If I join the Marine Corps and do my 4 years will I get job training and skills?

Question by : If I join the Marine Corps and do my 4 years will I get job training and skills?
I wanted to join the reserves or serve 4 years. Would either get me job training skills for a career? I’m leaning toward serving as a reservist but if I will get better training from the 4 years then I would want to do that. I am female, so will I get the same skills and experience as males? Will these skills help me to find a career?

I ask because I have never had a job and I want to know if this will get me experience.
I apply for jobs but employers tell me I don’t have experience. I apply for jobs at fast food places or cart attendant, low paying jobs such as those and the employers tell me I need experience for that?? I don’t understand why they say that.

Thank you for any advice
Thank you for your answers.
Would I get the same experience as a reservist?

Best answer:

Answer by ?
Only if you choose an MOS that will translate well to the outside. For me it was repairing avionics electronics. That training and experience kept me very well employed in electronics for decades after I got out.

Can On-the-job training programs rather than nursing degrees fill our country’s nursing shortages?

Question by Samian’s Sixth Account: Can On-the-job training programs rather than nursing degrees fill our country’s nursing shortages?
I was watching this segment on ABC News yesterday about how the US nursing industry has all these job openings, and solid job security, at a time of a deeping recession in the national economy.

As I understand it, one has to get an Associate’s degree in Nursing, which takes about two years to complete. So I was thinking to myself, is nursing a field where people could rapidly be given on-the-job training, as opposed to long and costly classroom education?

I figured if this could be the case, then maybe underemployed and unemployed workers could fill the nursing field’s shortages.

Your thoughts?
